DR NAZIM KHAN - THE SECRETIVE MASTERMIND OF PAKISTANS NUCLEAR WEAPONS PROGRAMME
And the target of British Intelligence officer Sarah Cable, now twenty-six, ambitious and strikingly attractive. Her task is to worm her way into his trust - if need be, via his bed . . .
The job is distasteful, vital and dangerous. One agent is already dead. Three more await public execution.
But there are greater dangers. In Moscow, Gorbachev, struggling to withdraw from Afghanistan, faces revolt from the Soviet military, still determined to crush the Taliban in Afghanistan and Pakistan. An unstable nuclear-armed Pakistan could be drawn in and set half the world ablaze. Sarahs courage, ingenuity - and her humanity - are about to be tested to breaking point.
